The highlight of the Spring social calendar, NDI’s Annual Gala raises $1.7 million in support of our award-winning arts education programs for thousands of children in New York City public schools each year. This eagerly-anticipated event will begin with a festive cocktail reception followed by an elegant sit-down dinner punctuated by a spirited live auction, an honors presentation, and special performances by the children of National Dance Institute that will send guests’ spirits and hearts soaring!
